2023-07-16 19:19:00
Kerala Blasters FC have started their preparations for the 2022-23 season in anticipation of their maiden title. Foreign players including Adrian Luna have come to the pre-season camp that started in Kochi last week. While the pre-season training is going well, now it has come to light that one of the foreign players in the team has been injured. This is a news that worries the fans.

Australian forward Joshua Sotirio, who came to Kerala Blasters in this transfer window, is now injured. There are reports that the player was injured during training the other day. Unofficial reports said that the injury occurred due to a collision with his teammate. A video of the player leaving the ground following the injury has surfaced on social media. The current information is that the injury is not serious. But an injury problem like this in the camp at the very beginning of the pre-season is disappointing for Blasters fans.

Kerala Blasters signed Joshua Sotorio on a 2-year contract. The club brought Sotirio to the team as a replacement for Australian player Apostolas Gianu, who was in the team last season. Known for his rough play, the player mainly plays in the center forward position. But the star can also play on the left and right wings.

Meanwhile, the 2023-24 Indian football season begins with the Durant Cup. This year’s Durant Cup will be held from August 3rd to September 3rd. After this, Kerala Blasters will go on a pre-season tour to UAE.
